This world does not make it easy to be a good man. What we need are good brothers to help us along the way. Men we can learn from and grow with. Men who've struggled and men who've surrendered to the Holy Spirit working in their lives.

We have a Messiah who enters into our mess. Messiah: Stories of Advent shares the testimony of several individuals who came to this realization in their lives and encountered God in the midst of the mess of doubt, relationships, and loneliness.

In My Encounter: How I Met Jesus in Prayer, Chika shares her journey of prayer — the highs and lows, the joys and the challenges. Her story will inspire you to dive deeper into prayer, even when it’s difficult, and give you hope, encouraging you to trust in the fact that you are not alone.

An XLT on Eucharistic Adoration

About This Night

This Life Night is an XLT. Although, it will look and feel a bit different than a typical Life Night, it follows the same format of Gather, Proclaim, Break, and Send and has an extended Break with praise and worship and Eucharistic Adoration.

The host is the master of ceremonies. He or she welcomes the attendees, breaks the ice, introduces the format, and begins in prayer. He or she is responsible for setting a prayerful tone and fostering openness to the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.

The speaker gives the main talk. He or she is introduced by the host. The worship leader guides the congregation in praise and worship. He or she is aware of the community and leads them from a place of high praise into contemplative Eucharistic Adoration. The speaker and worship leader should use the same language to encourage participants to worship God.

Transitions are important. Be sure to communicate with the host, speaker, worship leader, priest, and volunteers running the audio/visual elements.

The Gather is a short period of upbeat praise and worship and a light hearted, uplifting welcome by the host. The Proclaim is a teaching that is strongly influenced by personal testimony and Scripture, and invites teens to acknowledge that God is and enter into genuine adoration of God. The Break is a period of extended praise and worship and Eucharistic Adoration guided by the worship leader. The Send summarizes the Life Night and challenges the teens to continue to take time to adore God in their everyday lives.

Goal of This Night

The goal of this Life Night is to guide teens in worship of God, simply because He is.
